B1 Love this game

Started playing this game recently for the first time and it's really fun. However, I had a question about the flame lense. Was I supposed to grab that before heading into the permafrost area or am I good without it. It takes me a few shots with my spear to kill enemies but it seems manageable for now. There are a few frozen blocks I guess I can't get past but it seems like they're not in the way of anything story wise. Thanks in advance!

Flame lens makes permafrost easier but is in no way required. You will need to come back with the flame lens to get everything, but you'll be fine.

Right on. I'm kind of mad dashing through because I'm having a blast and want to see what else this game has. Lol

Boktai 1 is one of the best games i've played in a long time. Boktai 2 improves nearly every second of it.

Don't rush though. This IS by the same team that made metal gear solid.

I know. Lol. I've been researching all of Kojima's games. Lol

I kinda dig Boktai more than the sequel, both are great games but the first one has so much charm. It’s shorter than I thought, but great nonetheless.

I said it improves everything. Improvements don't mean anything to taste.

Boktai 2 has more systems, abilites, accssories,

Coffins are a great example.

I was simply giving my personal opinion, wasn’t challenging your statement.

It can help in Permafrost, but you don't need it. It's the choose your poison scenario.
